Hump Day: Emily Blunt Has Grown On Us

January 7th, 2009 by NextRound in Hump Day, Lady Friends

Emily Blunt is a British actress best known for looking familiar but not familiar enough to remember where you saw her (unless you saw her in Devil Wears Prada, then you’re just pretending you don’t remember where you saw her). We’d never really thought twice about Emily until we caught her brief but highly memorable role as the slutty southern daughter of a lobbyist in Charlie Wilson’s War. We recommend DVR-ing the flick the next time it’s on HBO for her appearance alone (see: cleavage + sexy smoking).

Now Emily is dating John Krasinski (Jim from The Office), regularly working out with a personal trainer, and starring in more and more films, so it’s probably time you get to know the “real” her. That’s where we come in…

Emily’s Hump Day Bio

Age: 25.

Where You May Have Seen Her: In Devil Wears Prada if you’re in a monogomous relationship. In My Summer of Love if you’re like Steve Irony and make a point to see any movie involving lesbianism, regardless how artsy. Or in The Jane Austen Book Club if you’re into dudes.

Where You May See Her Soon: In The Wolf Man opposite Benicio del Toro, a movie oddly enough about werewolves and not about del Toro often being mistaken as having been raised by wolves.

Fun Facts on Emily:

She ironically prefers to smoke weed out of a bowl.
She too thinks her boobs are getting better with age.
She dated Canadian singer Michael Bublé for three years because she was apparently just that bored.
And she also thinks The Office has lost its edge this season.
